some ACPI setting messed up the BIOS?
please check if there is any BIOS update.
what if you boot into console mode with boot option nomodeset and without
ACPI video driver?
what if you boot with AC only? or Battery only?

I'm not running 64bit any more, but have exactly the same problem with 32bit
Debian Squeeze (Linux debian 2.6.32-5-686). I also see reduced frequency of
boot failure with i915.powersave=0 pci=noacpi, but still about half of boots
fail.

On the other hand, I can hibernate and restart with very low failure rate,
though still get failures and have to pull the power and battery occasionally.

I have a similar problem having installed Debian Squeeze.  I did not have
this problem with Lenny.  It seems to be related to other problems reported
with this device which also relate to acpi.  The failed restarts generally
follow flooding of the log files with

This is associated with marked performance degradation (as you'd expect I
guess).

I have send a bug report to Debian, the number of which I can't access in
Gmail while writing another email!  It had 5735Z in the topic.

The frequency (but not the severity of failures) is reduced since I followed
advice to add  i915.powersave=0 pci=noacpi to the
GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT line in /etc/default/grub.

Cheers, neil

Hi Len,

Thanks for the follow-up.

Yes, this is still a problem for me.

In the mean time, I have installed 32bit lenny and it exhibits similar
problems. Currently I am using it (32bit) with acpi=off.

Initially I had thought the problem only occurred after a suspend, but
now I suspect it happens even without a suspend having occurred. Rarely,
I experienced the boot problem after the system running for only a few
minutes and other times after several hours of continuous use. In both
these cases I don't think the system was ever idle long enough for a
suspend to have happened. Thus is seems to be an intermittent problem
that is more likely if the system has been running longer. I don't know
that I have ever had a successful boot after a suspend.

If I boot/restart/restart/restart it seems to work OK - another reason I
thought it was suspend that was causing the problem initially.

I am trying to remember if any previous version worked with ACPI
enabled. If there was it was Ubuntu 9.04 or 9.10. I was using these for
a while but I think I disabled ACPI there also. I regret I don't have
notes and have since overwritten the installation with Debian, so can't
confirm. Everything I have tried has given me boot problems and
eventually I got everything booting successfully, but I think it may
have been by disabling ACPI in every case.

Regards,
Ian Goodacre

 From the debian bug report Aug 7th
 
  The system reboots reliably if it hasn't gone to sleep,
  but after having gone to sleep a subsequent boot fails
  with the same behavior as the older kernel exhibited in
  all cases.
 
 Is this still true?
 Does the system boot reliably if there is no system suspend involved?
 ie, if you apply power, boot/shutdown/boot/reboot a number of time w/o
 any suspends, does it work reliably?
 
 Is there any previous version of Linux that worked
 reliably on this machine?

(In reply to comment #1)
 does the problem still exist if you boot with boot option init=/bin/bash?

I tried three times, once leaving the system idle for 20 minutes and the other
times rebooting after a few minutes.

I don't know how to shut down cleanly from this state. The shutdown and init
commands fail, I expect because the init process isn't running. If I merely
exit the shell, I get a kernel panic then have to force the power off, which is
what I did all three times. Boot was successful after each such shutdown.
